Abstract: (APS)
A search has been made for a light scalar top squark (t̃1), which has remained unexcluded by previous e+e− experiments up to the Z0 pole. By assuming the decay t̃1→c+Z̃1 (lightest neutralino), e+e− annihilation data at Ec.m.=58 GeV have been analyzed. The number of events comprising large-acoplanarity particle groups is consistent with that expected from known processes. We excluded t̃1 in the mass range 7.6–28.0 GeV/c2 and Z̃1 with a mass very close to the kinematical limit at the 95% C.L.
